Description

A mental patient having a conversation with a puppet. None of the modeling is mine, but I did rig the puppet. The main character is the Mery rig (meryproject.com).

kavita

nice idea!..

Gaucelm De Villaret

Original idea and funny interpretation, Although can't help but think this is a bit of a cheap way to go without doing expressions.

Jabir Dz

Different thought.. but . . Lack of fundamentals

Sharkhead

Good idea. But still it needs more improvement.

Marcella D.

Why is everyone doing the puppet approach of telling a story?

Jake

Funny idea, the main character facial animation could be exaggerated a lot more.

Hajar Khakrand

nice idea

Connor Leuck

I like that you tried to do the linguistic mouth whispering. I'd keep the right arm on fk though.

Fernando Incetta

Good idea overall, try to rely less on the automated splines and work more on your pose-to-pose. Good luck.

Monica Stringer

okay, an actual logical reason to be talking to a puppet is established, so thank you.
the side talking is very well timed, though there could be some tightening up when the 'daughter' talks
